Tom-Toms Beat For Burris Rugged Sooner Lineman
Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 12—(UP)—Publicity tom-toms in the Oklahoma Indian country beat out a steady pull for Paul (Buddy) Burris for All-America guard honors, and they got amplification from several other football camps in the Midlands.
It was Burris, co-captain of many of the major blows in his team's crushing and shocking 41 to 7 victory over Missouri last weekend.
It was Burris, co-captain of this year's Oklahoma team, who dealt many of the major blows in his $^2$
Earlier this year, members of a beaten Texas Christian team said that "if Burris doesn't make All-American there just isn't any such thing."
Burris is roughly as wide as he is long, standing an inch under six feet and weighing 220 pounds. He played freshman football at Tulsa university, and was a high school end and tackle at Central high school in Muskogee, Okla.
He is one of the reasons George (Junior) Thomas, Oklahoma halfback is among the nation's leading ground gainers. Thomas says he just waltzes through the gaps Burris leaves in opposing forward walls.
Against Missouri last week, it was Burris who crashed through the Tiger line time after time to wreck Coach Dona Faurie's offensive patterns. And when he wasn't gumming up Missouri's attack, he was roaring through to nail helpless opposing linebackers and add power to Oklahoma's brutal assault on the Tiger goal line.
Burris has the faculty of making linemen opposite him fighting mad. It isn't because he plays dirty football, but mainly because he is so rough and apparently indestructible.
He is one of many of Oklahoma's bruisers who came out of military service to take up football after a long layoff.
Burris isn't bad with books, either. He is a "B" student in the college of business administration, where he is a senior.
When Faurot said of Oklahoma after the hurricane had frazzled his Tigers at Norman last Saturday, "they just beat the hell out of us," he was referring especially to Burris and the latter's rough buddies, though Oklahoma's fleet and tricky backs actually ran up the amazing 41 points which showed in the final count.
Burris, playing his usual game, contributed outstandingly to Missouri's sorry assortment of broken ribs, twisted knees and knocked-down shoulders.
OU Regents Face Gamble
Norman, Okla. Nov. 12—(UP)—University of Oklahoma regents, definitely behind a plan to enlarge the O.U. football stadium before next season, expressed doubts today that Soonerland will ever have a Bowl.
The University is too far removed from heavy population centers to draw the crowds needed to finance a stadium like that at the Texas State Fair grounds at Dallas, regents declared in informal discussions.
The type of addition to be made to Owen field remains to be decided. The regents, acting just four days after 38,500 people jumped the stadium last Saturday to see Oklahoma trample Missouri, voted late yesterday to extend the seating capacity.
Oklahoma has attracted such a crowd only twice before in the past 10 years, one member of the board said.
"We must approach this problem from a profit and loss standpoint," the regents said. "We cannot afford to gamble on having big drawing power to our football games year in and year out."
if the regents decide to accept a design leading to a circular grandstand, or bowl, the logical step during the coming 10 months would be the addition of a north curve, thus making the stadium U-shaped.
Walter Kraft, chief of the campus utilities department, said that such a plan would add about 20,000 seats to the stadium at a cost of around $15 to $20 per seat—or totaling between $300,000 and $400,000.
